Colorful exotic looking strains/hybrids

So, I've found that there isn't a consistency in colorful strains you buy and grow out that are suppose to be colorful and exotic looking, but don't. At least in the strains i've been researching ....

Could this be due to them being grown indoors? If grown outdoors do these given strains have more of a chance of becoming colorful (not just due to cold)? Now i'm not talking about just purple.... i've seen strains that grow out with pink and bright colored hairs before maturing .. selected through breeding just for the hair colors... but it seems like when peeps like me try growing them out, and you look through the threads, 80 percent of them don't come out how they are suppose to (in physical appearance).

I just finished my sweet tooth which should last me till fall, and i wanted to play around and grow out one FOR SURE beautiful looking strain that wont take longer than 11 weeks. One that has the highest success rate of being colorful. Almost sexually arousing with it's beauty :tongue:. I grew out some Nevilles haze a while back, and that was BEAUTIFUL but just too much work for that...and a budy of mine grew out a shaman that came out veryy lovely, but never cloned it or anything...

suggestions please:thank you:

this picture is of DeepChunk grown by Raco,,,,when i first saw this i relized i was missing out on colour,,,,i dont know if you know about DeepChunk and Tomhill but basicly DeepChunk is "pureline" and Tom is showing some extra special breeding skill...it fits the bill of a landrace "Kush" as dicribed by Rob Clarke and what tom is givin out has never been outcrossed [thats some high level game!!]

that Purple colour is fixed in the line as are many other traits,,,

its impressive,,,

Well I was on a quest for color as well and ended up growing querkle from subcool. Its speed queen crossed with erkle. The speed queen really speeds the already relatively fast erkle up. Tends to be relatively low yielder but very tasty and colorful buds. Out of the 8 girls I grew atleast 6 of them had purple with several having very purple leaves. Ive seen cuts of this girl that calyx go purple but none of mine did. Its a super fast strain with some plants finishing in 6 weeks of 12/12 the longest one is going on 9 weeks atm. The only complaint I had about these beans was some hermi issues. Growing inside and keeping a close eye on them shouldnt be a major issue. The male parts was popping on the lower inner popcorn that wasnt getting enough light.

menage-a-trois- forget the breeder, but the hairs start out pinkish, but they all end up orangey or reddish. as for calyx colors, flo has been putting out some good indigo//purple/blueish colors in my friends indoor garden, but this is like flo from 1999-2000. he breeds once a year and is creating a colored IBL out of it. he is backcrossing for color to his first really purple mother, and the colors come out about 95% from his beans.

Can't smoke colors, but it sure makes it fun to grow

Ah! so many choices, i've narrowed it down more specifically now to strains that will go orange/red by fall/summers end. Even Purple to almost grape-black leaves...just need it to blend in, and give a potent high and great taste.

I've browsed through all of BOGS, and a few others, and went through others grow logs on the sour life saver... could only find mostly logs on the life saver itself, and a few of those turned yellow/red/orange.

I decided i wanted the sour bubble but then discovered thats not available after all that hard decision making lol...so i'm seriously considering the tom hills DC if it really does have the purple embedded into the line, either that or one of bogs... idk... i need more time to think if i'm gonna spend that much on beans and be possitive on what i get... i'm not one to regret but i'm going to be so bummed if right when i buy whatever i pick, and then sour bubble pops up.... sour lifesaver is more for yield as SB is more for potency and taste (or so from what i've read)

more input please more bud porn!

edit: i'm totally interested in the Blueberry x NL#5 and bubblegum that RDZNL posted but i can't find any of the beans
